Assume that i played only 15% than i see in pokertracker 4 results for both sb and bb is (+231$) but than if i only play 15% from 23915 hand that is just 3587 hand .
Than 23915-3587 hand is 20.328 hands that i fold and loose money.
(20.328x0.05) + (20.328x0.02) = -1406$ i would loose in folding that 85% hands in blinds.
So i earn 231$ with 15% and loose -1406$ with that 85% folding so that is -1406+231=-1175$ in blinds....
So when i play like i play i loose -851$ but with tighter range (that 15%) i loose -1175$ or maybe i dont understand something here or im just bad in poker overal ��
Please can someone explain,i tried my best to explain this.
Your looser strategy is better than the tighter strategy you're filtering for. When you look at top 15% of hands only that you played from the blinds you're excluding a lot of hands that do better than folding which are present in your loose strategy. For example BU opens for the minimum, SB folds, you have 97s. Your 15% strategy would certainly fold this hand and lose the value of the blind. However your loose strategy would certainly play this hand and you should lose less than the value of the blind unless you're very poor postflop.
Also, sometimes you get a walk with a weak hand and don't lose your BB. Your calculations assume you always lose the blinds by folding hands outside the 15% range.
It probably is true that you should be folding more hands in the blinds. It's a common leak to defend the blinds too much. However this isn't a good way to analyze alternative strategies.
